OT but since peeps have mentioned "slide rule" (and tapping impatiently hoping they fix what is preventing the live stream  and to think I took a long nap to be ready) Here is a ditty I used to sing in college sang to an Elvis tune I believe - something to do with teddy bear? Does someone know the song? Can't remember now, such a long time ago, ;D).. Baby let me have, a darling engineer, Put your slide rule on my neck, and lead me anywhere, Oh let me have, an engineer. I don't want a lousy lawyer, Cause lawyers talk too much, I don't want a nerdy doctor, Cause doctors know too much, Oh let me have, an engineer. Apologies to lawyers and doctors - they are fine, I have several in my family. And of course, I married an engineer!  |

A microphone like this was used in the American Idols Tour book but in those photos Adam is wearing a black fingerless glove. The hand and ring look like a pose from the album shoot. Can this be photoshop? On the top it says screen capture so I thought it may have been from a video. And Bonnie Lamrock seems to be a glambert and MJ fan. Other than that I'm really not sure. But if Gelly doesn't know the pic I guess it could be photoshopped. I'm honored that you say this about me , BUT I never knew what was on that book from the Idol's tour, not pictures, not any info about Adam so MAYBE it is from there? ??? Oh and JazzRocks GREAT AVI!!!!  |

My first computer was a TI99-4A. It also used a cassette tape. I learned my first flavor of BASIC on that thing. I actually used punch cards for my first few weeks learning FORTRAN my senior year of high school. It was the first computer class they had and the monitors/keyboard didn't arrive before the year started. My first PC was a clone and did not have a hard drive - it was pretty fancy with 2 floppies! You could have your software on one and your data files on the other  Very first hard drive was 10MB and I thought it was HUGE and I couldn't possibly use that much space! OMG, you sound just like me, pjd ... I started out with a TI99-4A .... chose that over the Commodore at the time because it would hook up to a color TV ... so "moving up" to a real PC was a step backwards into the monochrome world! And my first real job (with Goodyear Tire) was pulling punch cards from a huge tub file for running thru tab machines to produce invoices. The first real computers I used at work were the dual floppy type, but the first one I bought for home had that HUGE 10MB hard drive! And I never did fill it up! We've come a long way, baby! ;D |

Remember Lotus 123 and Wordstar? Yup - I LIKED Lotus 123. Actually, I liked CricketGraph even better. Excel STILL can't do stuff like multiple x axes as easily as Cricket. Miss it. WordStar not so much. Was a big fan of the DOS version of WordPerfect. Had all the keystrokes memorized. Never used a mouse, ever, and it was so much faster than the later windows version! |
